VFV Website back up - sorry for the inconvenience!
Today is: "The Rules of Life Day!" Why Not?
I know there is a rule for everything, but without rules where would we really be in life! Lost in utter chaos! ― COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
The Quote in the Picture Today Reads: "7 Rules of Life"
1. Make peace with your past so it does not affect the present.
2. What other think of you is none of your business.
3. Time heals almost everything, give it time.
4. Don't compare your life to others and don't judge them. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
5. It's alright not to know all the answers. They will come to you when you least expect it.
6. You are in charge of your happiness.
7. Smile. You don't own all the problems in the world.
"Life Rule: Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens!" ― Unknown Author
"There are two great rules of life: never tell everything at once." ― Ken Venturi
"Rule of life. If you bother to ask someone’s advice, then bother to listen to it." ― Sophie Kinsella
"We must not only read the Scriptures, but we must make their rules of life our own." ― Hosea Ballou

The List of 7 is a great accountability list. You know I am big on that- great reminders and should fill many doors, cubicles, and fridge spaces...
